About this artwork
A common sight in Swiss landscape is a lone tree growing in the middle of a cultivated field. The artist wondered why. Was it left by the farmer to attract birds, or had the tree simply been growing there over generations? This was the origin of “Stammbaum” or Family Tree.

Please note that this painting is not a rectangle. The artist has created a unique six-sided canvas. “Stammbaum” is part of the artist's Habitat series, which is a celebration of trees, plants, botanical forms and animals.

« My art is associative. It’s how I interpret the world around me. »
Robin Ballard is an exciting Swiss painter who has exhibited her work nationally. In her paintings, she primarily reflects on contemporary issues such as migration, the rise of China and global dependency on crude oil, seeking not to impose any particular stance but rather to provoke thought and introspection. Ballard additionally enjoys the play between abstract and realistic representation, expertly navigating both to compose a body of work that showcases impressive diversity across a range of styles, subjects and forms.
